I was recently diagnosed with having DH.  I was diagnosed with CD last
summer (biopsy & blood work).  I have been on a gf diet since being
diagnosed.  Of course that includes a learning curve.  My dermatologist has
me on Dapsone for the DH.  I searched the archives for info on Dapsone.  I
came across a lot of negative responses to Dapsone.  I am wanting to know if
there are people who are taking Dapson and have good things to say about it.
I have DH over nearly my entire body.  My doctor says I have a bad case of
it.  The itching is unbearable!  When I was diagnosed with CD my IGA level
was 11.3 with less than 1 being normal.  I was retested in January and the
IGA level was .4 - normal.  The DH started at the beginning of January
before the second IGA test was done.  I read in the archives the DH could be
to some gluten I had 2 to 3 months ago.
